no. Washington was going to win no matter what, they created the presidency for Washington, but they were worried the anti federalists were going to use the retarded ass voting system they had at the time where the winner is president and 2nd place is VP to make Adams get 1 more vote than Washington so states would pull out of the constitution because no one liked Adams.

>>221040598
His resignation of his command of the Army was purely magnanimous to the point where all his officers, hard ass veteran soldiers and powerful, monied, and influential men, began to weep in public.

>country didn't completely disintegrate within its first 50 years of existence.
The country was broke, the Ohio Valley was Americas on paper but still populated by various native tribes AND British military bases that simply refused to leave, the states were all at each others throats, and a civil war broke out. Veterans who were taxed to death by a policy by Hamilton started a rebellion that the various state militias couldnt quell. Washington, as sitting President, had to lead the Federal Army out into the field to squash it.

In ANY other situation where a revolution leads to a new government, and then some reactionary peasant revolt happens, the new regime ALWAYS just goes full panic mode and mass murders them (See Lenin or the French Revoluion) but Washington didnt. Shays Rebellion was put down with little to no more blood shed and instead of killing them all, Washington made sure pretty much all the leaders were let off with a slap on the wrist at most because while he wouldnt tolerate their insurrection, he empathized with their desperate position and respected their service as enlisted men during the Revolutionary War.

He really is one of the greatest men to have ever lived.

we had just fought a war where a bunch of Americans died and the bongs gave all the land we took back to the french and told us we had to pay for the war and gave us no representation in government and then when we protested they shot us and dissolved home rule that we had had for a century and installed a british governor. Like the Battle of Lexington and Concord happened because the Britsh Governor Gage was seizing powder and he sent his men to go seize canons we stole and had hidden in Concord

the real hamilton was, yes. i particularly enjoyed The Examination VIII that he wrote in 1802 in which he rants about how foreigners destroy america and the only way to guarantee our future is to remain racially homogenous and mandate assimilation. it still boggles the mind when reading the things the founding fathers wrote why they didn't codify more of it into the constitution, knowing that not doing so would in their own words pose an existential threat to the nation in the future.

>>
>>221040922
there were local taxes being used on local things like bridges and churches before 1775. It's just that the bongs demanded we pay them back for the french indian war and they gave a bunch of land the Boston troops took back to the french.

>It seems something else was going on there we don't know about.
No, the reasons are actually very well documented and it's not just trade restrictions.
1. The Quebec Act. This granted a significant amount of land in the "Northwest" (modern day Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Michigan) to the province of Quebec, which the colonist felt deprived them of their own land claims (look up historical colonial land claims, it's hilarious, Virginia basically claimed everything in a straight line west all the way to the Mississippi).
2. It also granted religious freedom to Catholics, which angered the hardcore protestants in the 13 colonies.
3. Britain taking a more active role in governance of the colonies. Prior to the Seven Years War (aka the French and Indian War if you went to public school in the US), London was largely hands off, but with the costs of the war and the new acquisition of territory in North America, Parliament started taking a more active role in the administration of the colonies, which annoyed pretty much everyone in America at every rung of the social ladder for a variety of reasons.
4. And this is more petty, but the elites in the colonies who would have otherwise been amenable to a peaceful resolution with Westminster found themselves disrespected/snubbed by England. There's an infamous incident where Ben Franklin went into a meeting with the king's ministers in London, thinking he was going to have a discussion about policy, only to be berated and insulted in terms so harsh the stenographers refused to write down exactly what was said. It seems silly but in an era where honor mattered a ton these kinds of insults went a long way.

>>221040935
they also gave back a lot of land we too, there was an earlier bong french war in like the 1740s that we had to fight. one of the guys who killed at least 2 bongs at patriots day was a royal dragoon in King Philip's war or whatever 1740s war. Allegedly at age 70 something he took his musket, 2 pistols and a sword he took off dead frogs and shot 3 redcoats and then he got bayoneted and shot like 30 times when he tried to draw his sword to fight them. then bystanders dragged him back to his home where a doctor said he was going to die but he lived 20 more years and ALLEGIDLY fathered like 30 more kids by as many women

>>221041031
>Isn't Washington himself a retard that just got lucky?
He was a pretty mediocre general. But I wouldn't call him a retard, he wasn't incompetent. Just not particularly exceptional in any way. Had he been born in the UK, he might have been a colonel or something.

>>221040946
They badly misread the whole situation and IMO they didn't really take it seriously until things were already out of control. Half the reason we defeated them at Saratoga (which is what convinced the French to join, which is ultimately why we won) is that General Burgoyne was a dumbass who thought the whole thing was a big party and had running bets with other officers about how fast he'd crush the rebellion. If you teleport 1815 Wellington back to 1777, I don't think the United States exists today.
>>
>>221041146
My admittedly cursory study of British history suggests they had very few Wellingtons and a great many Elphinstones.
>>
>>221040927
>it still boggles the mind when reading the things the founding fathers wrote why they didn't codify more of it into the constitution
Similar to the religious question, there was just enough friction and potential for conflict that the founding fathers decided to bypass it entirely. Which in hindsight makes them look like geniuses and progressive paragons, even if they almost certainly didn't actually intend that lol
>>
>>221040995
bongs should have gotten the frogs out of our swamp.
Also that was like the 3rd or 4th new world war that century. there was one in the 1740s too
>>221041031
>>221041146
Washington wasn't the best US general at actually winning battles but he was extraordinary in his ability to keep his men together and get them to retreat and not to give the bongs a decisive victory. at one point a bunch of his officers planned to turn traitor and he told them he was disappointed in them and they decided not to. No one else would have had the shear force of will to keep the starving, cold, unpaid army together.
It's like how Ike couldn't do Patton's job and Patton couldn't do Ike's job

Historical naval power, doesn't exactly produce a lot of great generals. Same reason Napoleonic France was so incompetent at sea even while they had like 19 of the top 20 generals alive on land.

Exactly, in a lot of ways Washington was a better political leader than general even before formally becoming president. You can be a great general, but if you don't have that ability to keep everyone onboard after a setback you're fucked. Just ask Pompey or Mark Antony.

The bongs also kept doing stupid shit like going after Lafyette. There were multiple times where Washington sent Lafyette off with a small detachment while retreating in a different direction with the main army and the bongs went after Lafyette because they wanted to capture him and ransom him off to france

Teddy Roosevelt also invited a black man to dinner with his family at the White House, which caused such a massive backlash from insecure white racists that no president had the balls to do it again until the 1940s.

Also, sheer numbers means that if Parliament gave representation to the colonies like they were asking, sooner or later the UK would functionally be ruled from New York/Philadelphia, with Britain on the periphery, similar to what happened with Brazil and Portugal in the 19th century. I think it's the same reason why the British never properly integrated Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, those countries combined would be enough to outweigh every voter in Great Britain.

Again, yes. A pretty popular position among more progressive types of the era. They point to Booker T Washington or Alexandre Dumas as an example of how "the negro could be civilized".

The war was sparked by a few dozen lawyers and businessmen upset over lost revenue and impounded smuggler ships. By means of agitation, pamphleteering and fiery rhetoric - "taxation without representation", "liberty or death", etc - they were able to convince the common man to become involved against his own interests. The thousands who died in battle, or froze to death at Valley Forge were ultimately fighting for the personal enrichment of societal elites of New England.

Therefore, while catholics want an absolute king with divine right, protestants want a powerful parliament with a mix of nobles and commoners and a cucked king, while deists and atheists want no king at all, no religious influence and no nobility at all.

Therefore to American faggots who were into deism and all other sorts of faggoty freethinking having a king and nobility is itself very repugnant and cause for revolt.

I see the perfidious anglo is still doing the routine where they pretend Washington was acting as a rogue agent in how he dealt with the french forts in the Ohio River Valley and ignoring that he was operating under the orders of the British-born Governor of Virginia.

Just admit that you should've had a game plan to properly integrate your culturally british colonies. Maybe then you wouldn't be a failed state today.

No. That’s retarded. He was more like Eisenhower and had to step in to prevent his lower guys from getting slaughter in direct combat.

You have to go over his life to understand what he was. Simply put by 25 he was a General in the English army because he was that good and knew how to fight. Everyone around him kept failing and couldn’t fight in the American jungle.


No. That’s some commie propaganda m. The morherfucker was a trained general by 25. Anyone who says he was battle at battles is a fucking idiot. He rarely directed battles directly as well. The only time he’d command a battle is if he could most likely win.


I repeat. He was so good at command the British who viewed Americans as a second clsss feral people. MADE HIM A FUCKING GENERAL BY 25, HE WAS A SAVANT IN WARFARE

IT WOULD BE LIKE AMERICANS LIKE ME MAKING SOME RANDOM AFGHAN GOATFUCKER A FULL ADMIRAL AND GIVING HIM A CARRIER FLEET AT 25 AND HED WIN

JESUS CHRIST WOULD THIS WASHINGTON LOST MORE BATTLES THAN HE WON BULLSHIT DIE OFF NOW
>>
>>221046586
The British made him a general for his actions and pretend he fucked up still 250 years later lol

It’s ridiculous. Then foreigners pretend they know he wasn’t a good leader but don’t know he was basically a general at napoleon’s level by 25. It’s like “ahaha well did you know x secret about Washington I read this in state propaganda YouTube”

Washington was a savant at war. Even the British 250 years ago knew it and they made him a general by 25.
>>
I mean literally everyone pre and post revolution knew Washington was a savant at war
French were terrified and called him a savage mad scalper and put hits on him, natives called him civilization ender and city taker, Brit’s made him a general at 25, Caribs knew not to fuck around even the Barbary pirates knew don’t fuck around with Washington around. Everyone got the message
He would fight you and win

Pick your poison. Republics are plutocracies with good PR, true, but Washington being crowned king wouldn't be a magic perfect end. I believe King Washington could've kept the nation together as well as President Washington did. Problem is he died heirless. Immediate succession crisis. Even if we found a good heir without a civil war or balkanization, the United States, coming from the English tradition especially after the civil war, would have a limited constitutional monarch. As we see in England, those can easily become captive figureheads designed to rubber stamp whatever the oligarchs desire. It's not a gurantee you avoid the worst parts of modern America. Not to mention, many of the oligarchs of early America came from aristocratic backgrounds themselves, even if the elitist homeland didn't regard them as such. Maryland's flag was the heraldry of Lord Baltimore. Even into the early 20th century many of the proper Old Money families styled themselves as informal nobility, noblesse oblige (grand acts of charity such as funding public infrastructure and medical aid) and all.

I say this as an American with royalist sympathies. I fear we've missed our window to pivot like the Romans we love aping did, as old American elitism is basically dead, and so there's very little kingly stock left.

Old Worldism couldn’t be enforced in the New World.
The antiquated systems of kings and queens and churches and bishops just didn’t hold in the Americas without the institutional infrastructure to support it.
Rich land owners had all the power and knew it so they resented Brit’s trying to keep them under the thumb of the old regime.
Keep in mind what that world was like without modern communication and transportation. Britain was basically another planet trying to rule over a bunch of rich entrepreneurs in a wild untamed universe rich with resources.
Plus a lot of the settlers in the 13 colonies were religious radicals chased out of England for political extremism.

Every successful independence movement, or really any small country resisting larger country boils down to being more trouble than you're worth. The Atlantic was still logistically annoying to send an army across and once the French were convinced into making it a proxy war it was an almost guranteed win for the 13 colonies. The rough patch was not giving up early and scoring enough wins to convince the French.

You're not trying to win as in conquer the larger country, you're trying to not lose long enough for the big country to leave you alone.

Hello, everyone. In spite of the animosity in this thread I would like to tell our transatlantic friends of the many amazing places in England with American connections, should they wish to visit one day:

1. Thomas Paine's house (Lewes)
>The home of the Founding Father and author of 'Common Sense'
2. Benjamin Franklin's house (London)
>The only remaining home of one of America's greatest sons, where he lived intermittently between 1757 and 1774
3. Sir Walter Raleigh's birthplace (Devon)
>Birthplace of the great seaman and explorer who initiated the first English settlements in what is now the US
4. Captain Cook Memorial Museum (Whitby)
>The building where Cook was apprenticed to Captain John Walker
5. Parlington Arch (Leeds)
>A remarkable victory arch dedicated to the American Revolutionaries, commissioned in 1783 by Thomas Gascoigne and inscribed 'LIBERTY IN N. AMERICA TRIUMPHANT. MDCCLXXXIII'
6. Boston Guildhall (Lincolnshire)
>The 14th century building was the site of the trial of the Pilgrim Fathers, under William Brewster, in 1607
7. Sulgrave Manor (Oxfordshire)
>Tudor manor house built by Lawrence Washington, the great-great-great-grandfather of George Washington
8. Washington Old Hall (Washington, Tyne and Wear)
>The ancestral home of the original Washington family, in the village of the same name

But that's the fundamental problem, isn't it?

They thought of themselves as British. The actual British disagreed. The colonists were not treated or regarded as real, equivalent British. The colonists would try to speak to their overlords like they were equals, only to be astonished by the heavy handed response.

Very, very few colonists started off wanting full independence.

This one really got to the Yankees lel. It also doesn't help that the British had the English Civil War in the back of their minds throughout. The

In fact the Yankees thought of their rebellion as an ECW2. The WW2 of the day, the never again moment in history, was a tyrannical king fighting puritans. So there was a lot of political support for them at home. Little did they know the Yankees would turn their little republic into ravenous warmongering. Total years of peace? 1930-1939 maybe.

With a country as large as the US, a lower house is needed for more representatives, though since the number of reps is capped now and each house rep represents tens of thousands of Americans, it renders the entire bicameral system pointless
>>
>>221058846
>>221058916
in shithole third world countries that follow the bong system it's because they have an upper house for lords and bishops. France has one house for like local governments.

In the US Virginia wanted congress to be based on population, meaning only big states get a say and Rhode Island wanted 1 state 1 vote so each state got equal representation.

The house represents the people and big states like commiefornia have more say
The senate used to represent state governments, but they moved to direct election in the 1920s, and is a counterbalance to make sure everyone has equal representation and that shithole states like california can't dominate

every state other than nebraska has 2 chambers. this is because prior to the 1960s states usually had the lower house based on population and the upper house based on like county lines or some other alternative form of representation so that everyone would have equal representation and shithole cities full of subhumans wouldn't dominate. Then in the 1960s some communist jewish judge who hated America (Eisenhower called the guy his greatest regret) said all state legislatures had to based on population so now states with shithole cities like illinois and new york are dominated by subhuman retards in chicago and nyc who should be allowed to vote because they aren't people and they are evil piece of shit who want to deny basic human rights

If you're a history nerd it's a great mini-series, if you're not it's probably kinda boring.

> Independent Government Agencies

There is no such thing, there is nothing in the Constitution about an independent branch of government called the "Federal Housing Finance Agency" for instance.

It's the President, Congress and Courts. That's it.

Wrong, westward expansion as well as early industrialization and the class between Hamiltonian and Jeffersonian ideas beyond “muh slavery” is interesting as fuck. Especially when you look into all of the settlement that went in the antebellum years where fucking Ohio was considered to be the northwest and the frontier were places like Tennessee and Missouri. And then you have everything post Civil War with the Wild West period.

>and Adams was a terrible diplomat, the French hated and told him to fuck off, Ben got the alliance with France with zero help from Adams
Another American retard outing himself as slurper of the embarrassingly retarded propaganda of (((founding fathers))).
John Adams was the only decent guy among all of those self serving and opportunistic haute bourgeois plutocrats.
Read a fucking book, Adams did all the job and the French made all the deal with him. Franklin got the glory because the used goods of French politicians put in a good word for him.
God, I fucking hate Americans and their childish and utterly embarrassing """national""" myths.

He got bailed out by Lafayette. I wonder why the French directly military supported the Americans? And the Jewish merchants (slave traders) backed the revolution? Weirdly enough all the founding fathers were supported by slavery directly or indirectly.Total fucking mystery.

The masonic and kabalist satanic sex magic. That's why Washington never had kids and appears as Bapohmet in the capital statue. Hamilton himself was a bastard Rothschild

>>221063416
Because the French and English had been at cold or hot war for 500 years straight at that point and arming my enemy's enemies is a classic move in geopolitics.

>>221063416
Because our King was a naive idealistic dreamer who genuinely liked the idea of freedom
Masons paid him back by killing him, the queen (most beautiful woman atm who deeply cared about her son) and his son (tortured to death)

Look at any other country that has a revolution.
COMPLETE CRAP and it gets WORSE than it was before
America? the Founders knew not to desperately hang on to power and brutally suppress their political enemies

I never realized it in school but early American history was a lot of flip flopping between Britain and France.

in Europe the upper house tended to be the house for the nobles/elite to try to hamstring whatever prole bullshit the bolshies in the lower house pushed through, albeit not always succeeding
the American case is because for the house each seat is based on population (so bigger states have more house seats) while the senate gives 2 senators per state. this was to assuage fears that a small state like rhode island or wyoming would be run over by bigger states if they just went with the house
frankly with the outsized influence of the federal government nowadays it's an irrelevant worry but the historical concerns are very understandable

kek is that real? I'm imagining grouchy Paul Giamatti seething while Franklin trolls him when I bet he doesn't give a shit about the window.

>>221066326
Yeah Adam’s wrote about it in his diary . He just wanted the window closed and Ben went on about how fresh air is good for health
Would make for a good one act play

I haven't seen that monument, but last year I ended up going through a local MA graveyard and found some soldiers who were at Lexington green. I was around the 250th anniversary of the battle.
